Larry Dixon Top Fuel Experience

The Larry Dixon Top Fuel Experience offers passengers a seat in a two‑seat nitro Top Fuel dragster at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park near Brownsburg. The program pairs crew prep and safety briefings with a full‑throttle run in a purpose‑built two‑seater showcased publicly in 2017.

Runs are short — the acceleration phase lasts only seconds — but media reports and event descriptions highlight sustained high acceleration (reported near 4 g) and speeds the developer has described as approaching quarter‑mile drag levels. Availability and sanctioning have varied, so check current event status before planning.

You’ll spend most of the event on pre‑run activities: registration, waivers, safety briefings, and crew prep. The actual dragster run is over in seconds but delivers intense acceleration.

Look out for:

• Close‑fitting safety gear and a mandatory briefing before getting into the two‑seat Top Fuel dragster.

• A very brief, high‑G acceleration phase reported by media (rider reports cite near 4 g and very high speeds in the run).

• Stadium‑style pit and crew activity at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park; you may be near working race crews and loud engines.

• Photography opportunities before and after the run; onboard footage may be offered by the operator.

Best way to experience it: Arrive early for check‑in, follow all safety instructions, bring ear protection, and prepare for a very short but intense ride rather than a prolonged track session. Confirm run dates and any required waivers with the operator or venue in advance.

• The run itself lasts only a few seconds; the full event includes prep and briefing time.

• Expect very loud noise—ear protection is recommended.

• Availability can change; verify current scheduling and sanctioning with the operator or Lucas Oil Raceway.

• You may need to sign waivers and meet basic physical/fit requirements before riding.
